Hey Guys!
Other than the fact that I can't spell penny correctly sometimes, I'd like
to apologize for my strong reaction to the email about putting the embedding
center on "stand by". I had a pathologist once who occasionally walked thru
the lab after we had gone home for the day and turn off all the equipment,
especially the embedding center. Sorry! For the Cheeeep! Comment also.

Cheeeep!!
For the very little it costs to keep paraffin melted overnight vs the wear
and tear on your embedding unit to have to melt down the paraffin daily and
the loss of quality in your paraffin I would think that in the long run you
would have saved money by keeping your machine on.
We own our own lab and try to save every penney, but have never considered
your pathologist's suggestion and at this point never will.
Paraffin does break down faster when it is heated and remelted even once.

Good Morning fellow histonetters!!
My Section chief has asked me to post this question.
Does it hurt the paraffin to go from liquid to solid and back again
everyday?
Our Pathologist is trying to save the hospital money...he has ask us
to put
our Embedding station in a "Stand-by Mode".
